Russell Brand: rape and sexual abuse allegations, grifting and general dodginess - discussion

[edcraw]

I don't want to continue it. I'm very happy to leave it. But some sort of resolution would be nice.

 

[agricola]

You claiming that Brand is too poor to employ a lawyer?

Brand, 48, is reportedly worth $20 million, The Mirror reports, citing data obtained by Celebrity Net Worth.

No, I am claiming that the notion that because someone doesn't sue in civil court doesn't automatically mean they have admitted it.

 

[Ranbay]

I find it incredibly hard to believe an ex junkie and sex addict had nothing but full respect for every woman he met. Just don’t make sense

You both win

It's not a case of winning. It's about not posting up shit. It's about taking correction and acknowledging you made a mistake. Few of us I hope would disagree that if you inadvertently post up bollocks you should admit it.

I’ve said I’m very happy to be corrected (by Dystopiary).

It would have helped if you’d not been a cryptic arse about it and actually tried to correct me. I guess we both have lessons to learn here!

 

[Ranbay]

I tried to be kind, knowing you're not the sharpest pencil in the case. As I intimated, you're wrong. It doesn't derive from not of normal criminal element. It comes from not on normal courtyard exercise.

This, cos they get all stabbed up and stuff

Jesus. Dystopiary did not correct you. They said the backronym may be wrong. Correcting you is saying what the acronym originated from. Do you see the difference?

Err?

What about the women that came forward to finally tell their stories, surely they are winners?

I don't suppose it feels very much like winning. Sure, it's great if rb is held to account. But it's taken years to get to this stage. And there's a long way to go before this is over.

It's all going "Call My Fucking Bluff".

Not until Robert Robinson has slapped his bell, it isn't!

time to move on mate

yeh to the next time you post up bollocks and try to worm your way out of it.

 

[danski]

You ok Pickman's model ?

Bit harsh. They made a mistake

 

[Boris Sprinkler]

This information was known for ages. Why now? Are Brand’s conspiracies too close for comfort?
Jesus, if you think he’s bad, wait until you take a look at the powerful not in the limelight.

Just had a mate saying it was probably bollocks and there's an agenda to get rid of him etc... I then told him the headlines (literally the bit about the 16 year old that was the headline on most stories/papers) and he said 'oh that does sound bad'. That's what we're up against. He didn't even know the details. But he likes Brand, he doesn't like the 'msm', etc etc

Mainstream media really is one of the shitest phrases isn’t it?

don't get it after the saville stuff

years of rumors and people randomly going well it not be proven so it cannot be true

saville himself making remarks and hinting like it was dark forces trying discredit him

and then the reality of the situation after this death

People learn the lessons they choose to learn.

If I make a mistake like that I hold my hands up and apologise. You can tell a lot about someone by how they respond to an error being pointed out

I think he’s got it in for me as he seems to have a weird hatred of people cycling or something! Bizarre.

First time I saw it used was by the bnp.

Two lies in there. Plus what appears to be you starting a poor attempt at crossthread beef. Tell you what, have a read of the faq. E2a maybe only one lie, as you may indeed think I have it in for you. I don't.

 

[edcraw]

deleted as not worth it

 

[Pickman's model]

Just trying to explain your complete over reaction. Maybe that’s just how you are!

You say it's an over-reaction. And you would say that. You don't want to examine your own reaction do you. That's what you should be looking at.

Now, if you want to continue this you can do - but you'll have to make do without me.

 

[nogojones]

Isn't "worth" such an awful way to put it? He's not "worth" $20m, he's barely worth the effort of urinating should he find himself aflame. I do know people who are worth $20m at least, but the problem is that most of them have no money.

We could melt Brand down for his scrap worth.

Or a cut and shut with Jimmy Carr. No one could complain it wasn't funny.
